We are using Gnucleus.
You are sucking CPU cycles and using our network resources to make a buck.
Again, we are not running LimeWire but yet you still use us to make a buck, get it?

You come to Gnutella hoping to make it rich.

Gnutella is not the place to make a buck. If we let this continue every company that has a programmer will come over here and SPAM us hoping to make a buck.
We don't want to provide corporations with a FREE backbone and network support for their profit motives!
What don't you understand about this? Is it sinking in yet? Are you just playing dumb because your company revolves around sucking off Gnutella?

UltraPeers is not your "gift" to Gnutella. It just happens to fit your model of how you want to cluster nodes together for your XML crap. The idea came from other people, not LimeWire.
At meetings at LimeWire corporate headquarters you plan and scheme ways to make LimeWire do things other client's can't to give you a $$$ edge over others.
You know open source clients won't do XML because it takes a team of programmers to get it to work, and another team of support people to keep it working.
So you do XML even though everyone else says it sucks. You jumped on it because it gives YOU a advantage. Why? GREED!
This is greed, this is profit motive and doesn't belong on Gnutella.
Now your client needs to cluster or you will look stupid for offering XML queries. And you flood the network with your long, lame query packets, using our network resources to pass them (again, we are not running LimeWire) so you look good and keep your profit "advantage".
You need your own private LimeWire network, so does BearShare, you need to support it with your own backbone that you pay for out of your pocket, not ours!
We don't need you, but you need us, otherwise you would have your own little network already.
Kazza got taken off of downloads.com because they were going to suck resources off of other people's computers, you should be banned from Gnutella for the same reasons.
Greed sucks! Your motivation to keep working there and keep on sucking off Gnutella sucks!
Corporations on Gnutella suck!
Greed steers you in ways you wouldn't normally go, and always towards profit at any cost.
Kazaa is a good example, and BearShare too. Just because your company isn't as bad as them now doesn't mean if we let this continue you won't do it later.
Gnucleus has Superpeers now, for free. We don't want yours if the price is supporting more greed.
Again, this is not just a "project" it's reality, people are blocking LimeWire, BearShare and Morpheus with the modified Gnucleus and other open source clients on Gnutella Net.
See http://opensourcep2p.sourceforge.net/
People have the power, and the software to do it.
That's another feature you would never add, because it may hurt your profit motives!
You are also the last weak point in the network for RIAA style attacks, they take you down and your users have to scramble to find a new client.
They can force you through your profit motives to add things like copyright filtering and who knows what else.

Block'em all!
